OCMC mission is to help fulfill the
Great Commission of Christ: Go therefore and make disciples of all
nations, baptizing them in the
name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching
them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you
always, to the very end of the age. (Matthew 28:19-20).

The
Orthodox Christian Mission Center strives to establish vibrant
Eucharistic communities throughout the world, to develop and support
indigenous church leaders, and to strengthen the infrastructure
of their churches. OCMC carries out this work primarily, though not
solely, in countries where Christianity is in the minority and where the
Gospel message has not been proclaimed.

OCMC recruits, trains, sends,
and supports Orthodox missionaries who preach, teach, baptize, construct,
and minister to the spiritual and physical needs of those being served
and saved.

The
Orthodox Christian Mission Center is a nonprofit organization that depends heavily on donations to sustain work.
